5 reasons why you should not buy X100F

Here's 5 reasons why you should not buy fujifilm X100F (NOTE: these are just my personal opinion)1. You already have X100S or X100T

If you already own X100S or X100T, i would not recommend for you to buy X100F, simply because the image quality is not significantly different, except for the higher megapixels.

2. You already own so many cameras

If you already own so many cameras, there is no reasons for you to add another one (unless you are a collector), heal yourself from G.A.S (Gear Acquisition Syndrome), think less about the gear and enjoy photography more.

3. You don't have any money

With a price tag of 1,300 US dollars, fujifilm X100F is not a cheap camera by any means, if you don't have the budget then stop thinking of getting one, there are other cameras that cheaper but still can produce good images.

4. You can't live with just one focal length
If you are a 'zoom lens' or a 'multi focal length' type of person, you are not going to be happy with X100F, simply because you can't change the lens. But you do have options for two type of conversion lens (tele and wide), and with X100F you also have options for digital teleconverter.

5. You mainly shoot video

Although the video capability has been improved over the previous generation, i would not recommend anyone who mainly shoot video to pick up this camera, there are other cameras that's better than X100F in terms of video recording.

Of course there are more reasons why you should not buy X100F, but those are my top 5 reasons why someone should not buy fujifilm X100F. Fujifilm X100F is a great camera, but it is not a camera for everybody, most people will love it but some will hate it.
